Chapter 290: Kills

Gu Nan leisurely drifted to one side, completely ignoring the "mother and son deathmatch" behind him.

Gu Nan only cared about his own reward; Zi Yi's life and death wasnt within the scope of his concernthe rescue mission was issued through Astral Gate, so even if Zi Yi died here, Gu Nan would still be able to receive his origin crystals.

Now that Ying Ge had already been rescued, as long as Zi Dian's dream spirit was also killed, then Gu Nan's reward wouldnt be able to run away.

Even if Zi Yi intended to contest that, Astral Gate would also be responsible for investigating the mission progress.

Boom!

In the face of Ying Ges death, Zi Dians dream spirit that was only acting on instinct almost completely gave up on his swordsmanship. He simply used his sword like a knife, hacking at Zi Yi with great force.

His sword would cause a terrifying shockwave every time it landed. The entire Dream World seemed to be shaking.

Zi Yi, whose injuries were already quite serious, could only grit her teeth and endure it. She was powerless to fight back, but at least she could still withstand it. As long as she survived this wave of Zi Dians attacks

Boom!

Another blow fell. Zi Yi was only distracted for a second, yet she was suddenly slashed by this sword. The purple smoke around her couldnt help swaying.

"This rascal grew stronger again" Zi Yi also didnt know whether to laugh or cry. If she entered Dream World to rescue them only to die at her own sons hands, then that would really be an astronomical joke.

But the truly hateful one is Gu Nan!

Zi Yi once again recalled this mercenary of hers. He actually abandoned her and ran away by himself. He didnt have the professional integrity of a mercenary at all.

Of course she wouldnt understand. When there werent extra rewards to be earned, players would always ignore an NPCs life and death. They would only squeeze dry all remaining value from every single NPC.

However, luck obviously didnt intend to make things this easy for Gu Nan. Three figures suddenly broke in from the other side of this area. It was Grandma Tu and the Zhao brothers.

"That's the targets companion." The older Zhao brother immediately recognized Zi Dians identity at a glance.

The one Zuo Zuo wanted to kill was Ying Ge, so the person they were looking for was naturally also Ying Ge, but Ying Ge was gone right now.

Ying Ge existed here as a dream spirit. When she died, of course her soul immediately returned to her true body, so she didnt leave behind a corpse.

Therefore, the three dream masters who arrived late didn't realize that their mission had already failed. Rather, their eyes lit up.

Now that weve found the targets companion, the target wont be far away!

But right at this moment, a shadow suddenly emerged from behind the three. A sword of shadow suddenly chopped down while making a strange twisting motion.

Three hits in one slash!

Gu Nan's strike clearly intended to slay the three enemies simultaneously!

Dream masters true bodies werent much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators. With Gu Nan's current strength, he could indeed accomplish such a thing.

The Zhao brothers didnt even grunt as both of their heads fell to the groundthey were nothing more than two Prodigious cultivators. Faced with Gu Nans sword, they couldnt even turn around.

But Grandma Tu didn't die from this blow. After all, she was a Void Cutter expert, and they were currently inside Dream World, her home field And most importantly, she was expecting this attack!

Thats right. Even if there was no trace of Gu Nan at the scene, Grandma Tu still didnt let down her guard at all.

So the instant the shadow appeared, Grandma Tu's figure suddenly blurred, turning illusory. She seemed to have merged with Dream World for a second, which was just enough to avoid this slash.

But soon she reappeared nearby, her forehead full of cold sweat. She had a lot of lingering fear in her heart.

However, now wasnt the time for lingering fear!

Although the first slash missed, Gu Nan's figure followed her relentlessly, just like a shadow. He floated up to Grandma Tu with precision and stabbed his sword out, targeting the other partys throat.

In fact, it didnt matter where he stabbed her. As long as the sword pierced Grandma Tu, she would be directly torn to shreds by the boundless power of shadows.

However, Grandma Tu smiled coldly. What looked like a normal smile actually revealed a clear meaning: But this is Dream World!

If this was the outside world, an existence like Gu Nan would be able to kill her as easily as killing a chicken, but inside Dream World, it wasnt impossible to completely turn the tables around.

With a wave of her hand, Grandma Tu had already connected to the will of Dream World. A strange fluctuation landed on Gu Nan, and at the same time, that nightmare also began to rush at him again.

Dream masters normally controlled nightmares to kill their enemies. Now that Grandma Tu was here in person, it was naturally easier for her to control nightmares.

After that strange fluctuation fell onto Gu Nan, the scene before his eyes began to change.

It was clearly only an instant, but it felt as if time had been stretched indefinitely. Grandma Tus figure began to distort. She would change into a beautiful woman one second, then transform into someone familiar to Gu Nan the next second.

The list of people started from the very moment he transmigrated into this worldGu Nian, Lin Feng, Yang Lan All the way until the end. Even Red, Zi Yi, and Ying Ge were included.

Among the people Grandma Tu transformed into, there were men and women, as well as the old and the young. All of them had crossed paths with Gu Nan at one point or another, and all of them appeared without fail right now. Perhaps not even Gu Nan himself could remember all these people.

Grandma Tu's gloomy eyes stared at Gu Nan.

Of course she knew what Gu Nan was going through. As long as even one of these people could make his heart waver, then this tiny weakness would be magnified countless times until it filled Gu Nans mind.

And as long as it could affect the other person's mind even for an instant, it would be enough for the nightmare to swallow him.

So what if your determination is strong? These are all your own memoriesdont tell me there isnt a single person from your memories who can influence your emotions?

The sword glinted as it swung in an arc. Gu Nan's hand didn't tremble in the slightest, and his movements also didn't pause. The sword of shadow directly beheaded Grandma Tu, and the nightmare over there suddenly stopped its attack.

The answer was, of course, none.

None! Ever since Gu Nan transmigrated to this world, there was not a single person who could influence him!

He was like a traveler who was always looking into the distance, walking through every inch of land step by step. The people he saw and the events he experienced have all been tossed behind him.

This is a person who will never look back.

A moment before her consciousness disappeared, Grandma Tu vaguely saw a trace of Gu Nan's innermost thoughts. Thus, this kind of understanding emerged in her heart: Everything was in vain.

After cutting apart the illusion in one slash, Gu Nan still had the time to glance at her and mutter, "Isnt this illusion a little too weak? Does the Evil God physique even come with preinstalled immunity to willpower checks?"

Illusions didnt exist in the game, and even if it did, it would simply be a check of the players willpower stat. It wasnt like the game could make players overcome the illusions by themselves, so Gu Nan really didnt know much about illusions.

Three dream masters were killed by Gu Nan in the blink of an eye. On the other side, the mother-son battle between Zi Yi and Zi Dian finally came to an end as well.

Of course the victor was Zi Yi. No matter what, she was still a Star Ruler, and she was also incomparably familiar with Zi Dians methods.

Its just that she also paid a high price for the sake of victory, which could be seen from her extremely pale face.

"Now that the mission is completed, we can go back to settle the payment," after Zi Dian fell, Gu Nan leisurely walked up to Zi Yi and said righteously.

"You still dare to mention payment?! Zi Yi was truly surprised by Gu Nan's shamelessness. "Did you make any major contribution to this battle?"

"I have more kills than you."
